A message to
parents of the new children from the angels (given
by Doreen Virtue, PhD). They (angels) say,
"Listen well, parents of the nineties. You, too,
have an exceedingly important mission to fulfill.
You must ensure your children stay intuitive and
they stay very close to nature. Don't push them to
succeed at the expense of losing their soul purpose.
For our purpose is our guiding force, and without
direction, your children will feel lost, alone, and
afraid.

"So much better
for parents to focus their children on spiritual
studies, as this is their true nourishment that will
ensure their growth and survival. We angels are here
to help you parent, and we won't interfere or get in
the way. Simply allow us to cast a new light on
difficult situations, a task we complete with joy in
our hearts, simply by your open invitation for us to
heal. Do not ever feel that God doesn't hear your
prayers, for He sends us to your side the instant
that you call."

The New Children

Humanitycontinues to evolve. The latest generations of children
have unique qualities that are helping the planet evolve into a space where
Peace and Honesty reign, where Harmony between all living creatures is
the norm, and where Cooperation is given and expected as we realize (or
remember) that we are all connected to each other by Love.

The New Children are coming in groups with specific
characteristics which help them fulfill their purpose. This
purpose is to help the planet evolve spiritually by moving from the "old"
energy of fear (greed, corruption, competition and stress) into the "new" energy
of love (integrity, manifestation, and cooperation).
Many names are emerging for the new lightworker children at this time,
but here we will talk about the Indigo Children, the Crystal Children,
the Cusp Children (combination of Indigo and Crystal), and the Rainbow
Children.

The characteristics of most children being born today are quite unique
and different from prior generations. The main difference between
the new generations and the previous ones, is that these new children
are becoming more and more connected to the Divine; they remember
our spiritual connection. Even though each child expresses it in
unique ways, as a group, they are a more intuitive, more
telepathic, more sensitive generation.

The first of these groups,
the
Indigo Children, started coming into the planet en masse during the early
1970’s. Much has been written about them, about their characteristics
and how to help them. (A list of common characteristics can be found at
http://www.indigochild.com/ and for books written about them go to
the
Resources/books page on this website.) Indigos’ main trait is
their Warrior Personality, which is expressed as a strong temper and headstrong
nature. Indigo young adults and children have been called the “System Busters” because
they will not comply with systems which they intuitively know are
dysfunctional and limiting.

Indigos have come into the world
with a purpose to prove that rigid, archaic systems of education,
government, parenting and healthcare do not work and to help usher in
new and healthier patterns of human care and relationship.

For example, our schools are
currently being challenged by the Indigos, who are creating an
"educational" crisis to show us that our educational system needs to
change. Another system that is being challenged by Indigos is the
current medical system, who is misdiagnosing thousands of children with
ADD/ADHD and medicating them.

Indigos also have an inner “truth” detector,
which helps them KNOW when they are being lied to, manipulated
or patronized. They have little tolerance for dishonesty and don’t
know how to cope with what they believe are meaningless tasks and
discussions. After all, their purpose is to teach others about the
importance of speaking truthfully and living in harmony and integrity.

In a way, the Indigos have been "clearing the way" to make it easier for
the next generations to come. Doreen Virtue, PhD, author of Care and Feeding
of Indigo Children and The Crystal Children, states the
approximate “dates of arrival” for the Indigo, Cusps, and Crystal
Children,

“In general, Indigo
Children are ages teen through 20’s however, there are exceptions.
There are older Indigos (known as Indigo Scouts) and younger as well. But the largest
number of Indigos came from 1975 through 1995. Around 1995, we started
to see the shift to the new Crystal Children. Some of the children born
around ’95 have characteristics of both Indigos and Crystals. These
have been called ‘Cusp Children’, like astrological cusps for people
born on the 21st of the month.”

Most children being born today are
Crystals. The Crystal Children are here to show the way to
peace and
acceptance, hence they are also called “The Peacemakers.” Crystals love
water, animals, plants, nature, and rocks.
They
are generous, highly affectionate and forgiving. They are also
extremely sensitive to everything in their environment… negative
emotions in others, food, chemicals, sound, color. Crystals are highly telepathic, they can
read minds and people’s energy. They tend to communicate with their
parents telepathically (sometimes, even before birth). It is not uncommon for Crystals to wait until they’re 3 – 4 years old to
begin speaking, especially if they communicate easily with their parents
without using words. They also show an intuitive understanding of
spirituality and energy healing. (For more info on the Crystal
Children visit
http://www.thecrystalchildren.com/crystal.html and
http://www.lightworker.com/beacons/021502Children.shtml.)

Crystal children
are exceptionally kind and sensitive. They are an example of where
humanity is headed with their spiritual awareness and intuitive gifts.

Even though children with Indigo and Crystal traits
continue to be born, the groups of children coming to Earth
continue to evolve. The name given to the next generation is
Rainbow Children. Not that many Rainbows have been born
yet. Dr. Doreen Virtue says she has only met 3 in her world travels. Their energy is the purest so far, they have a high vibration of
complete joy and contentment, have a peaceful nature, and their presence
gives out a feeling of holiness; like being in the presence of Jesus. They have no karma, so they are
here purely to give rather than for personal growth. They
communicate mostly through telepathy. You can recognize these babies/children by
their energy of giving to parents, rather than needing. "Parents will realize that they cannot out-give their Rainbow
children, for these children are a mirror of all actions and energy of
love. Whatever loving thoughts, feelings, and actions that you send to
them are magnified and returned a hundred-fold." (Doreen Virtue, PhD)

The
reason for determining whether your child is Indigo, Crystal, or a
combination of these traits is to help you understand that your child’s
characteristics have a spiritually-based origin and may lead you to
further research techniques and tools to help your child (and
yourself) with the challenges, as well as with, the gifts.

It is also important to recognize that we can help
our children without the need to label them. Labels
(positive and negative) put our children in boxes and create certain
behavioral expectations that are disempowering. The names
given to these children are just a way to help us recognize and
categorize the traits observed in the latest generations. Just learning about these
traits, recognizing and understanding them, and applying this insight to
your child’s environment is a wonderful gift you can give to
your child, as well as to yourself and humanity in general.

Regardless of whether your child is a
"new child"
or not, she is a special, beautiful being,
who is here on this planet to bring blessings to you and others whose
life she touches. Your child chose you to be his or her parent because s/he
knew you would be the best one for “the job.”

Believe in yourself, tap
into your own source of wisdom, and KNOW that you are completely
qualified to raise your child!
